Guest KRKWMU Posted December 16, 2008 Share Posted December 16, 2008 (edited) Circle of Grey is a greyt resource. So is the LymphomaHeartDogs group. I already told you about the one book that really helped us, Help You Dog Fight Cancer, by Laurie Kaplan. Another one recommended by GTers is "The Natural Vets Guide to Preventing and Treating Cancer in Dogs" by Shawn Messonnier. It's not an easy read like the other book, but it does have good information. If you want, I could send you my copies by Priority mail and you could borrow them. I ordered both books on Amazon and it seemed to take forever for them to arrive. Keep PMing me questions anytime. I'm anxious to hear what Penn has to say about everything. Hugs to you and Monty.

Guest greytmonty Posted December 16, 2008 Share Posted December 16, 2008 I'm so saddened to see this. When do you go to Penn? Penn has no appointments for 30 days and Dr. vilar at OSU gives monty 4 to 6 weeks without chemo. Local vet will call Penn to try to get him in, and also call OSU who offered to walk local vet through chemo and mail them the meds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest GracieGirlGrey Posted December 16, 2008 Share Posted December 16, 2008 I just found this thread and I'm so so sorry to hear about Monty's illness.
